ماريوت ريزيدنسز، عايدة عُمان

Marriott Residences is the Marriott-branded apartment collection at AIDA, 224 homes in two cliffside towers at Yiti designed by Kerry Hill Architects. Dar Global, the London-listed (DAR) international arm of Dar Al Arkan with more than 15,300 homes delivered over around 29 years, develops it with OMRAN, Oman’s state tourism developer; Marriott operates and brands the residences under a licence. The official component value is around 100 million US dollars (the legacy listing’s 260 million figure conflated currencies and is wrong).

The towers rise to seven and nine storeys, set roughly 130 metres above the Gulf of Oman. The homes are one, two and three bedroom apartments, with indicative sizes of about 60 square metres for a one bedroom, 94 for a two bedroom and 194 for a three bedroom. They are delivered fully furnished, with European kitchens and a balcony to every apartment, utility and laundry rooms, and a maid’s room and storage in the three-bedroom homes. Living spaces open to ocean, cliff and golf-course views.

Ownership carries a Marriott benefit: complimentary Marriott Bonvoy Platinum Elite status for two years. As a branded residence, the homes can also be placed into a management arrangement, confirmed on the current terms.

The amenity offer is substantial. Residents have a cliff-edge infinity pool of around 30 metres, a Marriott-managed spa and wellness centre, a gym, a clubhouse, restaurants, cafes and other food and drink venues, a private beach enclave with a 1.5 km promenade, tennis courts, a children’s pool and play area, hiking and running trails, viewing decks and landscaped parks, all within a gated community with 24-hour security, plus access to AIDA’s 18-hole Trump championship golf course. The developer’s AIDA site currently shows September 2029, with 2027 the original launch target; we confirm the handover per home.

Marriott Residences sits inside AIDA, the Dar Global and OMRAN cliffside resort taking shape at Yiti on the Muscat coast, organised around a Trump golf course and hotel and delivered in phases. This is the branded, serviced apartment collection: 224 one to three bedroom homes designed by Kerry Hill, from around 210,000 pounds, with hotel-grade management. It differs from the entry Great Escape 2 apartments by its Marriott servicing, and from the villa collections, the seafront Oceana, golf-front Fairway, top-of-range Trump and compact Sunrise Haven, by format and entry point. It suits buyers wanting a lock-up-and-leave home, not a house.

The Marriott management and golf and hotel setting point this stock toward holiday-let and managed-rental use rather than long-term city tenants, with resale into the same international ITC buyer pool. The honest counterweights: a long off-plan horizon to handover, purchase in Omani rials and so currency exposure, and Oman’s planned personal income tax to weigh on a longer hold. Omnia models the cash flow and a clear exit with you, and does not publish yield figures. Confirm the applicable residency route, the specific home and the application requirements before relying on residency as part of a purchase.
